Day 6 Pictures

Getting bigger already

...one more from the beach

Day 3 - New Collar, Padre Island

Went to Petco to get Ulric a new collar. Had him ride in the crate on the way there - he definitely does not like it...going to have to work on this.

Went out to Padre Island to get all of my stuff out of the place on Leeward Drive, and then visited the beach briefly. Ulric liked the sand, but still would rather stick close than explore drifted seaweed and wood. No complaining here though, it is nice he sticks so close.

Ok...posting a small picture for the forum

Yikes the last one was WAY too big...hopefully this one will be OK

And the second picture

...yes they're fake flowers...

A few more pictures...

Well so far so good - everything is as expected with a new pup. He is actually a lot better behaved than many dogs I have watched before that were his age.

He is already doing well on the leash - just basically wants to follow me around.

Thanks for all who posted comments on the Friends Forum. It is great to be part of such a nice group of people.

At Home

Ulric got in to San Antonio last night - was a little earlier than expected, but I was there early so it went well. He made a friend on the trip, a bulldog puppy named "Snoop."

He was pretty good on the ride home considering he had spent the whole day in the cargo bay of a plane - just passed-out on my lap.

He woke me up several times last night, but only because he already knows if he has to go, we have to go outside.

He's probably still a little stressed, so I'll wait a day or so to take him to get another collar - the one I bought was too small.

All for now...

...not working tomorrow

...so, it all works out. I can go and pick up Ulric in the evening. Tina gave me all the info, so I am ready to go and very excited!

As soon as he is home and settled, I'll post some pictures. Well, better get to the gym for a little while

Startin' up the Blog

Sweet...started the blog...will be working on posts and such soon. Going to attach an image just to see if this works.

Here is Ulric; courtesy of New Zion Shiloh Shepherds.

Full name (hopefully) is Ulric der Edlen von Zion...but probably will be aka Ully or Rick.

Gotta study some NATOPs and get some dinner.
